3-step Mini Ritual
Find a cloth you can wear; hold it and set the intention: 'I choose protection or release.'
Wrap it around your shoulders and breathe slowly for three minutes, feeling what it shields.
Name one thing you are hiding and then decide whether to keep, transform, or let it go.
Tie a small knot to seal the choice, then place the cloth somewhere visible for 24 hours.
Affirmation
“I wear my boundaries with kindness and remove them with courage.”
Next 24 hours
Carry a small shawl or scarf; when tempted to withdraw, touch it and ask what you are protecting.
